Architectural debt: dealing with technical debt at the architectural level
Architectural principles: unifying perspectives without constraining responsibility
Group decisions: models for efficient, joint consensus-building
The agile architect: modern role models for architects
Governance 2.0: agile scaling and architecture
Evolutionary architecture: agile development of systems and system landscapes
This training is aimed above all at developers and architects who want to enshrine effective architectural work in agile teams and larger projects. Technical project managers and product owners will also receive valuable inspiration. Practical experience in the design and development of systems as well as an agile context in your work environment is advantageous.
Architectures are increasingly developed in autonomous teams, and the technical, conceptual responsibility is more widely spread in modern organizations. Architectural concepts must dynamically adjust to the situations, and technological change should take place continuously and incrementally – in other words evolutionarily. New skills are therefore demanded of developers and architects encompassing not only technical but also methodological and communicative aspects.
Experience in this training course how agile principles and ideas can be transferred to architectural work and how you can logically and efficiently enshrine architectural practices into agile approaches.
The International Software Architecture Qualification Board (iSAQB®) brings together leading experts from industry, consulting companies, and science. This includes many people of distinction in the world of software architecture. And all with one goal: competent education and further training – internationally recognized, standardized, certified, and always up to date. We are proud that many of us as curators in iSAQB® have jointly masterminded the curricula and examination tasks.
Although big upfront design is fortunately a thing of the past in agile software development, architecture work remains of central importance. In the AGILA training, Stefan Toth succeeds excellently in conveying approaches for integrating iterative architecture work in an agile context. He creates a balanced mix of theoretical content, practical experience and fruitful exchange among the participants. A special highlight is the practical exercise project: the concepts taught are applied directly and deepened in an entertaining setting!

Modern software architecture should be agile and practical. This book by our trainer Stefan Toth offers lightweight patterns that can be flexibly integrated into projects - without rigid specifications.
In this iSAQB® curator interview, Stefan Toth, curator for iSAQB® CPSA-A® ARCEVAL and iSAQB® CPSA-A® AGILA, reveals why agility and software architecture go well together. You can also find out more about the architect:inenn role and the challenges in an agile team.
Architecture is stable, software development is agile - there are constantly new requirements and new sprints with new plans. How do these two worlds fit together? In this episode Stefan Toth discusses these and other questions about agility and architecture - from team to company level.
In agile contexts, software architecture is becoming more dynamic, fragmented, and distributed. Agile thinking brings cross-functionality, iterativity, and flexibility. This is changing the discipline of architecture. In large development projects, communication and ad hoc decisions are more difficult. How can agile architecture work be done effectively in this context? The sixth edition of our architecture cheat sheet summarizes the most important aspects.
